John Frieh Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Do these pants make my butt look big? :laf: Does anybody have a req on a body fat monitor/scale? Certain brand and/or model? Seeing how fat my fellow cube farmers have grown from the daily grazing has me a little paranoid... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ketch Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) I have been moving from hospital monitoring to home monitoring for a seperate problem. In that process I recently got one of the Tanita, It is the 533 model (the round glass face one). Over the last few months every time I have compared my home numbers to the "professional"ones they have been a very close match. Well within daily fluctuations anyway. If your goin to spend the money I have been happy with the Tanita. As a side note the accuracy is really affected by the setup. Make sure you put in good data to start with. edited to correct model number Edited March 14, 2007 by ketch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 John, i think if you are mainly tracking how you change over time, then the model matters less than should you want an absolute accurate number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_like_sun Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Just go to a gym to get your bf checked. U probably don't need to do it more than once every 6 weeks! Use the ol self finger pinch......U can definately feel when things start to thicken up. Another "wide rule of thumb", if you have a six pack, then you are definately under 10%. Thats when things get fun.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
